Time For A Rest

     I'm late to the game posting yesterday's workout and I have somehow misplaced my training notes. So join me on the journey through my mind, trying to remember what the hell I did 18 hours ago. Here's what I think got done:

••••••••••

CABLE HAMMER CURLS:

(35lb x12) 4x

CABLE TRI. EXT.:

201b x12

(15lb x12)

SEATED DIPS:

60lb x15

(70lb x15) 4x

MACHINE PREACHER CURLS:

(30lb x12) 4x

EZ BAR SKULLCRUSHERS:

(30lb x12) 4x

DB SPIDER CURLS:

(25lb x12) 4x

*I did a variety of standard curls and hammer curls.

     I've come to the conclusion that while I like the cable machines for some things, for movements like curls and extensions I much prefer dumbbells. From here on out we'll probably just substitute those when we have to.

     There were a fair amount of young men in the weight room yesterday and I have to say, they talk more than any of the women in the gym. At times it makes me laugh, but it also annoys the piss out of me. I'm not calling for a silent gym, that's just stupid and unrealistic. It would be nice though not to hear some arrogant little puke running his mouth non-stop, talking about the new vein on his bicep. Now I know why people wear headphones lol.

     Frank and I are both glad that yesterday was somewhat of an "easy" day. The 4 days were taxing for both of us, but it does feel good in a weird sort of way. We're feeling accomplished and looking forward to the full 5 days this next week. Monday will be deadlifts making this the first time we've deadlifted at the gym. I've missed it - I think it was one of my favorite lifts. 

     My left knee was very sore yesterday and I think it was residual soreness from leg day without braces. I'm happy that I got stuff done sans braces, but I will be wearing them for Monday's session. I don't want to take any chances. I feel as though my legs are getting stronger and helping my knees and that is definitely a good thing! 

     Here's to a relaxing 2 days off!
